They feel the report names (that they came up with) are too long and too hard to remember -- so they want a report number (replacing the report name) to make their life easier (ex - RPT-0001). Their current mainframe reports have a numbering scheme, so they want one in our new Reporting Services reports. To me it seems like they're afraid of change (wait, did I just say that)....Personally, I'm not in favor of the Report Number idea. I feel the report name and report description are sufficient. But then again, I'm just the architect of the project, so what would I know about Reporting Services. :-)I'm curious if anyone out there has an opinion on the subject. Have you been down this path before? Good, bad, ugly -- I'll take them all.Thanks much!TimWed, 13 Aug 2008 14:00:28 GMTtmac3217
